This lavish hotel is situated close to the heart of Reims, giving you convenient access to all the city鈥檚 historical attractions, shops and restaurants while providing a peaceful retreat thanks to its large, leafy grounds. Built in 1904, the building served as a family home for many years, with stone pillars and cherub statues adding to its striking appearance.
Its interiors are the work of designer Pierre-Yves Rochon, blending Rococo and Belle 脡poque styles. Original portraits and tapestries hang from the walls, chandeliers illuminate the rooms from above and large windows with thick drapes let in natural sunlight.
Its palatial style, coupled with just 20 guest rooms, makes for an exclusive feel. Each room is individually decorated and varies in layout, but all exude elegance.
A highlight is having the chance to dine in the hotel鈥檚 two-Michelin-starred restaurant, which serves sophisticated French cuisine. There鈥檚 also a second French restaurant and a bar where you can sit down to afternoon tea.
This is a beautifully appointed hotel in a prime location within Reims. We like to retreat to its lush grounds after exploring the city, but you鈥檙e also well placed here for exploring the Champagne countryside.
